​

So it was decided. Germany would be their next destination, although it seemed like a shot in the dark. Why exactly Hay Sun chose there, she did not know, but it was better than nothing. Jun Tae was making arrangements on his phone like the Asian - tech - ruler of the underground - wizard that he was. Honestly, his shady lifestyle made her uneasy, but he was more dependable then some of the others. She went to gather the others, stopping in the kitchen to see Joslyn and Brandon eating breakfast. ❝ We're getting ready to leave. ❞ Her gaze fell on the blond boy on the floor and she sighed. ❝ Are you staying here, or are you coming? ❞

There was a crashing sound and she fled the kitchen to see everyone on their feet. Cassandra had been standing by the window when a shape came barreling through with no regards to its own safety. She was pinned to the ground and one of those possessed tore at her throat. Blood gushed everywhere and a flaming red light flashed. Hana's blue eyes were wide with shock and fear. Sam stood over the two with his sword piercing through the back of the creature. It went limp on Cassandra's motionless body. Hana seemed to snap back into focus at that and rushed forward.

She shoved Samuel out of the way and pushed the lifeless possessed man off of Cassandra. Hana's hands frantically moved over the purple - haired girl's body. Blood was spilling out everywhere and her hands were coated in crimson. They couldn't loose another one. She didn't say a word. One hand was covering Cass's throat, the other was pumping her chest. They couldn't lose another one. Hana was biting down hard on her lip, but she couldn't feel the bruising taking place. A hand was on her shoulder, dragging her away from the body and she scrambled forward some more. ❝ She's gone... ❞ She couldn't distinguish the voice. Her mind was so clouded and her head was throbbing again that she couldn't tell who was talking.

There were flashes of colorful light -- Hellfire. Hana blinked and rubbed her eyes, smearing blood all over her face. They burned Cassandra's body right there, in the house. She stared at the pile of ash in astonishment. Her legs felt numb and words were lost on her tongue.

❝ We're leaving. Are you coming or what? ❞

❝ Y-yeah. But ah... I can't just leave Rubbish here. ❞

❝ Are you ser-- ❞

❝ He can bring the cat, ❞ Hana finally managed. Her eyes never left the scorched floor. They lost another one. How on earth were they supposed to succeed if they kept losing like this? The little battles were what made the most difference, not the single big one. This was leaving them weakened. Every time they gained some strength, it was sapped away from them. They would never stand a chance like this.

[/url] Walking around Siberia like this was basically like walking around blindly. He had no idea where he was and had absolutely no idea where he was going. Finding this guy was going to be an immense pain and he questioned if he would have to start breaking down doors to find this guy. Most people remained inside due to the cold so the odds of finding this guy were incredibly slim, but there really wasn't much he could do.

The area he walked into reeked of fish and though he loved eating the animal, the stench was not so pretty. With a groan he closed his eyes and slouched as he walked but then a sound caught his attention and immediately the aristocrat's eyes opened up immediately. He noticed a group of men tossing around some fish, working for a living and all that crap, but one person caught his attention. "Gold hair, pale golden eyes, gold bronze skin....daaaaamn that guys pretty golden....wait a minute...he fits the description...thank you walking around randomly" Alistair said quietly to himself as he narrowed his eyes and smirked.

The pendant the boy wore and the aura Alistair swore he saw around the boy and the sheer display of strength that the boy preformed from tossing the fish was what practically confirmed that this was his target. With that Alistair ran up to his target and immediately held the boy in a light headlock "heeeeeeeey, there you are, I've been looking all over for you buddy" Alistair said cheerfully.

 

​

[/url]
LEON WAS 'IN THE ZONE,' AS THEY SAY. HE DIDN'T EVEN NOTICE THE COUPLE APPROACH HIM. ONE AFTER ANOTHER HE HURLED FISH INTO THE STALL. THE SMELL GREW MORE BEARABLE AS TIME WENT ON, BUT IT STILL WASN'T PLEASANT. AN ARM WRAPPED AROUND HIS SHOULDERS AS HE HEFTED ONE OF THE FISH INTO THE STALL AND IT PULLED HIM INTO SOMEONE'S SIDE. HE WAS BEING PULLED INTO A HEADLOCK AND GASPED IN SURPRISE. LEON WAS DEFINITELY NOT EXPECTING THIS SORT OF FAMILIARITY SO QUICKLY FROM THE OTHER GUYS HERE. THEY ALL SEEMED SLIGHTLY INTIMIDATING AND NOT THE SORTS TO BE SO CHUMMY.

"Heeeeeeeey, there you are, I've been looking all over for you buddy." SAID A CHEERFUL VOICE.

HE LOOKED UP TO SEE AN ENTHUSIASTIC RED HAIRED MAN WITH HIS ARM AROUND HIS NECK. THE MAN THAT REFERRED TO HIM AS 'BUDDY,' HELD A CANE IN HIS FREE HAND. THERE WAS A WOMAN WITH HIM AND LEON'S GAZE FLICKED FROM THE FEMALE TO THE MAN. THAT LANGUAGE... IT WASN'T RUSSIAN. ENGLISH(?) -- THAT'S WHAT IT WAS. THIS PERSON THAT WAS TREATING HIM WITH FAMILIARITY, WAS A FOREIGNER. DID HE KNOW HIM?

"Ey! Chto za zaderzhka?" CALLED THE FOREMEN.

LEON PULLED AWAY FROM THE ENGLISH SPEAKING RED-HEAD AND GAVE AN UNCERTAIN WAVE BACK TO THE FOREMEN. "IZVINITE. IZVINI! VSEGO MINUTU." THE FOREMEN LOOKED DISPLEASED, BUT WAVED HIM AWAY. LEON GAVE YOZHIKOV A NODDED BEFORE STEPPING AWAY FROM THE TRUCK. "AH, EXCUSE ME." HE FINALLY TOLD THE COUPLE IN ENGLISH(?). "DO WE KNOW EACH OTHER?" HIS GOLDEN GAZE SHIFTED BACK AND FORTH BETWEEN THE MAN AND WOMAN. THEY WERE AN ODD LOOKING COUPLE.

{♚} Location: Old Gym {♚} Mood: Slightly Miffed {♚} OOC: Time to start posting again {♚}​

Waiting inside the confines of the old gym Logan paced the ground waiting for his friend to show up. They were suppose to meet a while a ago and he still wasn't here. I should've figured that something like this would happen. After all, Alois did have a history of running of being late. Beside, there was no way in hell that he'd expect him to do all this work by himself. If it did come to that, then there would be consequences. With a quick sigh, he made his way over to a nearby bench and sat down. No sooner then he did though, his phone went off.

It was a good thing that Alois had contacted him, that definitely lower how annoyed that he was. Still he wasn't here yet so how much it was lessen by would all depend on that.

With any luck that blunt message would be all the motivations he needed to hurry up. After all considering how long they have been friends, Alois should know how he gets when he's really annoyed. Still there was some time to kill before he hopefully arrived so Logan decided to take a quick nap. It took a quick second to reposition himself on the bench, but once he was lying down, his eyes soon closed.

 

[/url] "Ah...no, this is our first encounter" Alistair said casually as he leaned back against and nearby wall and let out a mere sigh as he smiled. Luckily the boy before him could speak English and this would make things more easier for him. "Right then, my name is Alistair Grey, I'm a famed doctor from Ireland...but that part is unimportant" Alistair said with a chuckle before setting his eyes at him again. "You must be wondering why I am here before you...well...I know that you've lost your memories...and I know that your...special..." Alistair said crossing his arms.

"Now then....what I am going to tell you is something quite top secret....well to honest you don't really have to keep it a secret, but I feel it would be more beneficial for you if you kept it hush hush" Alistair said before looking around the area. "Well now, we can't really say this here....do you know any place the two...err...three of us can get some privacy?" Alistair said looking down at his arms as he said that. For what was to come he couldn't really do it in public...things would get messy.

Samuel Riviera
DAY: 31 - 2/4 | DATE: October 22nd, 2013 [Tuesday] | LOCATION: Adam's Grandfather's House in Carlisle, England ==> Airport in Berlin, Germany

After Cass bit the dust, everyone piled into two cars and drove all the way back to London, which took them about five hours with pit stops. The white haired girl spent most of the time crying and talking to herself, while Red's condition had gotten a little worse. She was out of sorts and her head was starting to hurt again. It got to the point that Sam had to piggy-back her around again. The loss of Cassandra definitely hit them hard.

Almost immediately after getting back to London, they made their way to the airport to get on the private jet that Jun Tae somehow managed to acquire. Though he hated to admit it, it was a good thing that guy was around, especially since Moneybags decided to up and vanish. As soon as they got to the airport, they boarded the jet and got themselves comfortable. For whatever reason, that Adam kid had his little cat with him on the plane. After putting Red into a seat in the jet, he sat down in his own spot as the plane took off.

Two hours later, they were in Berlin. Sam checked on Red before getting her onto his back and making everyone get off the plane. They really needed to get off of their asses and put it in high gear. Even though they had gotten three new people, they had lost three people at the same time. Four, if you count Alistair's mysterious disappearing act. With Red being in her current condition, they would need recruit people in her stead. Although, they would have to figure out what was wrong with her as well.

With Red on his back, he went over to the pale skinned girl. "Girl, where's that compass pointing right now?"

"Ummm..." She wiped her eyes on her sleeve as she sniffled before checking on the compass. "I-it's umm... It's pointing t-to th-th-the northwest..."

"Alright, let's get a move on." He said coldly to everyone. "If you want to take a breather, do it quick." Sam started to walk away from the group. After getting a good distance away from them, he turned his attention to the person on his back. "How are you holding up?"

x​

Adam originally was pretty damn irritated. Not by the fact someone died in the middle of the living room, because he didn't find that irritating as much as he found it terrifically predictable. Was death a common thing on their adventures? He only had one way to find out.​

x​

But they all had set his living room on fire and he stared in horror, and then they had the nerve to ask if he was coming. They had just set his house on fire! They couldn't carry the body out of the house to burn it? Adam rolled his eyes when they asked if he was indeed coming and his immediate thoughts came to the cat in his kitchen. They let him take the cat, although if they said no Rubbish would probably have done fine on his own.​

x​

He found the car ride to be both extremely awkward yet extremely entertaining. Other than the fact Snow White, or he learned her name was Joslyn in the car ride, and Brandon were both in the car, he wasn't used to being dragged out of his home and out of the country. He felt like he was out of his element completely. Adam kept trying to keep from looking in the car but he kept constantly looking towards Joslyn who was crying. Everyone else looked down too, he barely knew Cassandra and he didn't know how to react. Looking at all their faces reminded him of his school all over again and he couldn't keep looking at the others.​

x​

When they got to London, Adam looked around at it in shock. It had received a lot of damage, a lot more damage then he expected in London. It wasn't nearly as bad as Carlisle but that could have just been an illusion, there were still people walking around here. They weren't walking casually but they were still here.​

x​

When they got onto a plane, which was apparently a private plane, he wasn't even paying attention to anything going on. They all could have been plotting his death all he knew, but he was sitting with Rubbish on his lap looking out the plane window in fascination. He hadn't been on a plane before, but he had flown with Harbonah, once, maybe twice. But the second time was after he got hit on the head so for all he knew it could have been in his sleep rather then an actual event.​

x​

About halfway through the flight, it finally hit him that they were leaving the country. He had never left the U.K. In fact, he'd never even been to Ireland. So for a good amount of time he stared off thinking about the other country before the voice finally chimed in again.​

x​

Sooo, are you excited?​

No I am terrified, I don't know how the hell I am supposed to get these people to trust m-​

That isn't what I am talking about.​

...What were you talking about?​

Seeing the world kiddo... I am talking about a fun little adventure. Dang, all serious talk and no fun... maybe we need to work on that too.​

I'm serious here!​

I am being serious too. Live a little kid, you're still young.​

I'm not a kid!​

What's wrong with being a kid? Nothing is wrong, I mean. A boy is the man in planning, the man is the execution. And if you tell me this is your execution of a man, you are either a bad planner, need a lot of help, or your execution is poor. Just saying.​

But I'm NOT a kid.​

And I'm female.​

x
When they all landed in Berlin, Adam walked off the plane with much confusion. He left Rubbish on the plane because he didn't want to carry it around everywhere.​

x​

Adam looked at the condition these people seemed to be in, Hana was being carried on Samuel's back and looked terrible. The rest seemed down, or confused, or clueless. Either way, he wasn't sure what to think of this group yet.​

x​

"Girl, where's that compass pointing right now?"
"I-it's umm... It's pointing t-to th-th-the northwest..."​

"Alright, let's get a move on. If you want to take a breather, do it quick." ​

x​

Adam stared at them all with a face of complete confusion, as he watched Samuel keep a distance from them all, "What, did the north pole suddenly shift? Last I checked compasses pointed north."​

x​

Just shuuush yourself. You aren't exactly in normal company​

x​

Adam put his hands in his pockets and rolled his eyes at Semyaza's response and instead looked around at Berlin, just to absorb his curiosity. Everyone else could go ahead and have a miserable time but Adam was enjoying the idea of being in a completely new environment and seeing people around. People. He never thought he'd admit to it but he actually liked seeing real living and normal humans functioning in their everyday tasks.​

​

 

Joslyn Taylor Jones
DAY: 31 - 2/4 | DATE: October 22nd, 2013 [Tuesday] | LOCATION: Airport in Berlin, Germany

"What, did the north pole suddenly shift? Last I checked, compasses pointed north." Adam said with a confused look on his face.

"O-oh, well..." Joslyn turned to look at him. "Umm... This... This compass i-i-isn't normal..."

"Ugh, why do you need to explain this to him? It's pointless to tell him, he won't be using it."

"Iiiiiiiiiiiii completely agree with this one. The only ones who should know are the one who will use iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit~." Joslyn simply brushed some hair aside.

"W-w-well... p-p-put simply..." She took a moment to sniffle. "This compass pi-pinpoints the locations of other f-f-fallen angels... Th-that's how we found you..." She held the compass out.

"Jeez. This is so fucking stupid. Do you need to explain how this damn compass works to every single person we get?"

"W-well, no..."

"Actually, why are you even holding on to this damn thing anymore? Your friend is back, why don't you hand it off to her?"

"You saw her... She isn't feeling well."

"...And?"

"Well, I mean, it's just that..."

"It's just that... what?"

"I... Uhhh..."

"I... Uhhh..."

"Ooooooooooooooooh~ would you please shut up? Is this what it's like to hear two people biiiiiiiiiiickeeeerrrrrriiiiiiinnnggg~?"

"You shut it!"

"Iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii~ refuse, you biiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiitccchhh~" At this point, the two had started to bicker again. She used this moment to just stop talking and go to some place to sit for a moment.

 

Brandon wasn't entirely feeling his usual pep on the way to Germany. Normally he'd be stoked to go on a cross continental trip to the Deutschland but now he wasn't feeling so upbeat. Cas had just died, like out of nowhere. No one had seen that demon coming at it looked like it's primary purpose was literally just to run in and kill her. After that, the group's morale seemed to dip down and no one was really in a talkative mood anymore. Thankfully,though , Lion had made up arrangements for them to somehow have their own private jet to get them all the way to Germany. So that was pretty cool.

One five hour long plane ride later, the gang had finally made it to Germany and still didn't seem in the greatest of spirits. Brandon thought of making a speech on the spot to raise group morale, but couldn't really find any words to say or any core concept that could really pump their group up. In the end he was just sort of standing around, waiting for the group's next plan of action to take shape. Though realizing it'd be boring just to kill time like that, he decided to do something in the down time.

Hearing that Adan had made a comment on why the compass wasn't pointing north, he was going to make a comment on it when he heard Jo, in her usual stuttering manner, answer the question. Then she started talking to herself again...which was weird. Brandon understood it was a thing she did, though he wasn't exactly sure why, and still felt rather awkward just hearing her own personal conversations...with herself. Nevertheless he walked over to her and decided to strike up some good old fashion conversation. "Yo Jo. So how about that being in Germany. Seems pretty cool that we've been able to travel to all sorts of place now right?" He wasn't entirely sure what kind of a follow up would be good at this point but he just went with, "so what kind of angel do you think we'll meet this time?"

"O-oh, well...Umm... This... This compass i-i-isn't normal..."​

x​

See, told you.​

Sh!​

x​

"W-w-well... p-p-put simply... This compass pi-pinpoints the locations of other f-f-fallen angels... Th-that's how we found you..."​

x​

"Oh." Was all he managed to pull out as a reply before Joslyn walked off. He continued to look around before he heard the man with the knife speak.​

x
"My wife's alive,"​

x​

Congratulations.​

x
"She found herself in Russia. Temeluchas's doing no doubt."​

x​

Adam visibly flinched at the name. Oh boy, this quick in and already she's made a name for herself in this group. Although he wasn't that surprised, he would never be able to guess her agenda.​

x
"I'm not going with you guys. I need to find her and my children."​

x​

Oh but the children might not be alive, you never addressed the children!​

x​

Adam ignored Semyaza and spoke out almost immediately, "Okay, I'm all for you wanting to accomplish things on your own but... you are going to Russia to find her? Do you know where in Russia you need to go? If you do, go for it, but if you don't, I wouldn't. As much as jumping to save your wife right now might seem like a good thing, running in with no clues and searching all throughout Russia is going to be even less useful. Even if you love your wife, she's not going to get any help if you are lost."​

x​

Adam moved his hair from his face while he took a breath and spoke, "I'd stick here and figure it out while you are with... us... rather than run off on your own. Then once you've got it down, go play hero... although I take it if Lu's involved you wouldn't want to go on your own."​

x​

Adam heard clapping and looked around to find out who was doing it, but then stopped looking around when he realized it was in his head.​

 

Joslyn Taylor Jones
DAY: 31 - 3/4 | DATE: October 22nd, 2013 [Tuesday] | LOCATION: Airport in Berlin, Germany

Joslyn sat there, as the voices continued to toss insults back and forth. It was getting to be too much. She wanted to ask Hana to get rid of them, even if it was for a little bit, but since she wasn't in the best of conditions, she didn't. It would be nice to have some peace and quiet in her life for a few moments again.

Suddenly, Brandon came up and tried to strike up a conversation. "Yo Jo. So how about that being in Germany. Seems pretty cool that we've been able to travel to all sorts of place now right?" It seemed like he wasn't too sure what to say next. "So what kind of angel do you think we'll meet this time?"

"Oh. Well..." She wasn't expecting him to come up to her at all. "I... I guess it's cool... I-I haven't really thought about it, though." Her finger was fiddling around with a lock of hair as she spoke. "A-and I couldn't say what k-kind of angel we'll meet. Wh-what kind of angel do y-you think we'll meet?"

​

Hana had been out of it for the vast majority of the trip. She said little to nothing. Jun Tae had made all the necessary arrangements for them to leave the country and they didn't need her to drive, so she just sat there staring out windows for the several hours while en-route. Before they left the plane, Sam came to check on her. She stared up at him in a daze and he pulled her onto his back once more. It was strangely comforting and she rested the left side of her face again his shoulder blade.

❝ Girl, where's that compass pointing right now? ❞ he asked Joslyn as they stepped off the plane.

Hana reached for the spot against her chest that the compass lay pressed for so many weeks. There was nothing there, of course, but she had grown so accustomed to the feel of its warmth and humming that she couldn't help but grab at it. A full month has already gone by. They had already run out of one - third of their time and no one was anywhere near ready for an all - out battle.

❝ Ummm... ❞ Joslyn replied with a sniffle, ❝ I-it's umm... It's pointing t-to th-th-the northwest... ❞

❝ Alright, let's get a move on. ❞ Sam said coldly to everyone. ❝ If you want to take a breather, do it quick. ❞

Hana kept her face pressed to his back, staring off into the evening sky of Berlin. She liked Germany, even with their shaky past. It was a beautiful country. Sam started to walk away from the group and she bounced lightly on his back. After getting a good distance away from them, he seemed to turn his attention on her.

❝ How are you holding up? ❞

She lifted her head to meet his angled gaze. Her blue eyes locked with his dark ones and she sighed. Her head was throbbing and Cassandra's blood was caked on her skin and clothing, having not bothered to clean it up. ❝ I've been better, ❞ she replied softly -- the first words she's said since leaving Adam's house. She shifted her weight on his back, her hands grazing over the large muscles in his shoulders. There was a burst of euphoria that was quickly diminished at the sight of the red, crusted tint on her hands. ❝ You can put me down. ❞ She waited for him to oblige and landed lightly on the ground. One hand was clutching her head and the other held firmly to his elbow for balance.

❝ My wife's alive, ❞ Henrik's voice seemed to ring out. Her gaze shifted over to him, while still clutching Sam's elbow. ❝ She found herself in Russia. Temeluchas's doing no doubt. ❞ He seemed to meet her gaze at that. ❝ I'm not going with you guys. I need to find her and my children. ❞

Hana shook her head. That was foolish and most likely exactly what Temeluchas wanted. If Henrik went gallivanting across Russia on his own, without any sort of clue as to where his wife was, then he risked being killed for being alone. Although she would never wish it on anyone, the children were better off dead. Xathanael knew a thing or two about dead children and also Nephilim children. The sheer fact that Temeluchas managed to keep Henrik's wife alive through the birthing process was a miracle in and of itself, which meant that the Dark Angel had a use for her still.

❝ Okay, I'm all for you wanting to accomplish things on your own but... you are going to Russia to find her? Do you know where in Russia you need to go? If you do, go for it, but if you don't, I wouldn't. As much as jumping to save your wife right now might seem like a good thing, running in with no clues and searching all throughout Russia is going to be even less useful. Even if you love your wife, she's not going to get any help if you are lost. ❞ Adam made perfect sense. Even if the others distrusted and/or disliked him, he still made a very valid point. Henrik was being reckless. Adam moved his hair from his face while he took a breath and spoke, ❝ I'd stick here and figure it out while you are with... us... rather than run off on your own. Then once you've got it down, go play hero... although I take it if Lu's involved you wouldn't want to go on your own. ❞​

​

Hana nodded her aching head. ❝ Adam is right. Henrik, the sheer fact that your wife is still alive means that Temeluchas still has a purpose for her. If you go rushing off to Russia without knowing her exact location, you risk dying which will help no one at all. To be honest, I don't agree with the idea of your children being allowed to live, but they also do not belong in the hands of the Dark Angels. There's no way your wife is going to have them. Temeluchas will, without a doubt, be holding onto the children, probably in Hell. We can't allow her to keep them, but we also cannot be running off on our own at this point. The Dark Angels would have probably left you all be if you remained clueless and uninvolved, but you're not anymore and from what it looks like, she had already made herself known to you before everyone found you. Until you know have an exact location on your wife, you need to stay with the rest of us. When the time comes, I will gladly accompany you. No one should have to suffer at the hands of the Dark Angels, especially not your families. ❞ She directed the last bit to everyone. ❝ Too many have already lost their lives from this upcoming war and you all should not have to lose your families as well. And ... if you already have ... for that I greatly apologize."​

​

She sighed and gripped onto Sam tighter. Hana turned in the direction of Jun Tae and let herself fall into Sam's side. She suddenly felt it difficult to stand again, but would have only looked more pathetic if she had given her speech clinging from his back. ❝ You have transportation arranged, correct? ❞​

​

 

​

Brandon had received an answer that wasn't really an answer from Jo. Oh well. He started to think about what kind of angel they'd meet up with next. They already had quite the variety of angel badasses already. "Hm, well let's see. We already got quite the variety of powers between lightning, all three of our fire users, one of us can turn invisible and um, psychic mind powers or something, so I don't really know what to expect here. Maybe if we found a guy who had the ability to go and like control plants or something like that would be pretty cool. Or maybe just someone to use a different element. I mean, if you count me in there we already have four firebenders. Be pretty cool if we could find some other type of like air or water or even earthbender." He started to think of so many different awesome abilities that angels in wait might have. Really based on all their powers, that weren't fire, the possibilities seemed endless. Though he was still wondering what Jo, Adan, and Lion all had up their sleeves in terms of angel powers. Ah well, if they haven't been shown yet (excluding Adan since they just met him,) then they must be super badass.

He turned his attention away at the sound of Heinry sounding elated about something. Apparently he knew his wife was in Russia...wait he had a wife? Then Adan told him how stupid it would be to go to Russia at the moment. Brandon was actually thinking about how awesome it'd be to go to Russia, though right now they were in Germany with a purpose of finding more angel badasses to become apart of this totally amazing group of people. Then Xana told him off as well and what she said got him thinking. What so special about Heinry's kids? Like what was the whole big deal about being an angel's kid? Did they have like some weird super power? Ah well, worrying about it would probably get him nowhere, and asking about it would probably only end with him being met with an extremely cryptic response that only would serve to confuse him further, so he perished the thought. Though he was curious about where exactly they were going tonight. Despite everything that happened he still felt pretty restless and wanted to continue doing something for the day. They were burning moonlight and, with the death of both Shane and Cassandra happening, he felt like he was super weak. He really wanted to get stronger and despite being a part of this crew, wanted nothing more than to become the strongest of all of them, including the dark angels. That way there'd be no way he'd ever lose again. He walked over to the group and just decided to ask a question that may or may not have been on everyone elses mind. "So are we just going to chill at a hotel for the night or are we finding our next fallen angel person?"

 

​

x​

Adam listened to Hana respond to, Henrik, which he finally found out his name. He wasn't really searching for names, he was just waiting for them to be brought up in conversation.​

x​

Hana had turned her head towards another one of the people in the group and asked, ❝ You have transportation arranged, correct? ❞​

x​

Well that was wonderful, at least they all had resources. Then suddenly Brandon spoke out, "So are we just going to chill at a hotel for the night or are we finding our next fallen angel person?"
x
Adam just stared at Brandon after that.
x
He just said that so casually, just chillin at a hotel
Oh calm yourself down, maybe you do need to spend a night at a hotel. Or go to a spa, or something. You are still such a busy kid, a busy busy busy kid. Are you in a rush? If you are here expecting to be able to get Xathanael to trust you in less than a few days, you are expecting way too much.
I just want to get this over with...
Is it ever truly over with, do you really think finding out about Leviathan's location is going to be the end of it? I've got news for you kiddo... it isn't. Can it kill you to have a little fun though?
These people aren't having fun it seems.
It's because they need to be serious, after all. This isn't your side correct? In the end, all of them are going to die because of the path they have chosen. Isn't that what you said, Adam?

Adam realized he was still staring at Brandon after all of that and looked away from him. Hopefully, Adam looked like he had just completely zoned out.
x
I did say that, yes.
But you aren't on their side, so have some fun! Live and learn. That is the best way. The best way to learn is through experience rather than being locked up in a house. I only stuck with it because it was what you wanted.
You wanted to leave?
Of course I wanted to leave, not because of Harbonah or anything, but because you weren't learning anything. Keep casual with your useless activities, become a bore. In fact, I miss the old you. Where is the old you?
The old me?
Mister Party, the one who went out and got himself drunk as he hung out with his friends because he wanted to have a good time. Mister Leader, the one who everyone listened to, respected, the one who led a strike at his old job because they dared to drop your pay. Mister Hopeless Romantic, always chasing after some girl... oh wait, never mind. You still have that trait... no wait. You don't! HA. All the girls you felt a close bond to are dead!
Shut it.
Six feet underground and cut off from the heartbeat.
I said shut it.
Poor lover boy's got no love to obsess over. No friends to drink with. No position to rebel against authority. All of that was sucked away when a pretty white haired, blue eyed girl, popped in to seduce a boy in greenhouse.
x
Adam started digging his nail into his forearm completely zoning out everything as they dug deeper.
x
Would you mind running a couple streets away from the schooool? NOT AS LONG AS IIIII'M WITH YOU~
Stop
And then the girl and the boy ran off down the street in the rain, laughing, and once they got to a warehouse, and the boy say DYING for a kiss, hoping to get lucky. Praaaaying he'd get lucky. And then the shadows took away the once free soul of a boy that caught me curious. I can still see the strings.
x
Adam felt blood rush down his arm and stopped himself, he hadn't done too much damage but he wasn't even aware he just harmed himself until that moment.
x
So Marionette, I wanna play with you a little bit. Have my fun with you.
You already are.​

"Ah...no, this is our first encounter." WELL THAT WAS .... SOMETHING. WHO ACTED WITH SUCH FAMILIARITY TOWARDS SOMEONE THEY HAVE NEVER MET BEFORE? LEON EYED HIM SKEPTICALLY AND WAS READY TO GET BACK TO WORK. IF HE JUST CAME HERE TO BOTHER HIM AND HAD NO REAL PURPOSE, THEN THERE WASN'T ANY POINT IN GETTING IN TROUBLE ON HIS FIRST DAY. "You must be wondering why I am here before you...well...I know that you've lost your memories...and I know that you're...special..." HE SAID WITH ARMS CROSSED. OH. LEON HADN'T SAID ANYTHING ABOUT HIM BEING AN AMNESIAC. HOW DID THIS RED - HAIRED FELLOW FIND OUT? WAS IT IN THE NEWS OR SOMETHING? IT MUST HAVE BEEN IF THE POLICE WERE INVESTIGATING.

"I'M AFRAID I DO NOT KNOW WHAT YOU MEAN BY SPECIAL." HE REPLIED. LEON TAPPED HIS FOOT IMPATIENTLY. HE COULD FEEL THE FOREMAN'S GAZE ON HIS BACK. HE WAS HOLDING THEM UP BY CHATTING.

"Now then....what I am going to tell you is something quite top secret....well to honest you don't really have to keep it a secret, but I feel it would be more beneficial for you if you kept it hush hush," HE SAID WHILE GLANCING AROUND LIKE SHADY - SHIFTER, "Well now, we can't really say this here....do you know any place the two...err...three of us can get some privacy?"

LEON HAD THIS STRONG URGE TELLING HIM THAT RUNNING OFF WITH STRANGERS SEEMED LIKE A BAD IDEA, BUT HEY, THE RED - HEAD HAD A PRETTY COOL CANE AND SEEMED TO REALLY WANT TO TELL HIM SOMETHING. "I DON'T. I STAYED AT A HOMELESS SHELTER LAST NIGHT." THE FEMALE SEEMED TO BE AWFULLY QUIET. MAYBE SHE WAS SHY. SOMETHING TUGGED AT LEON AND HE DECIDED ON THE SPOT THAT HE WASN'T A FAN OF THE SHY, QUIET TYPE. THEY NEEDED TO BE LOUD AND FULL OF PERSONALITY. HUH. WHERE DID THAT COME FROM?

MR. RED HAIR OFFERED THE HOTEL ROOM HE WAS SHARING WITH THE WOMAN. WITH A FEW QUICK WORDS TO THE FOREMAN, HE WENT ALONG. MOST PEOPLE WOULD CHALK IT UP AS A BAD DECISION, LEON CHALKED IT UP TO IGNORANCE.

​

THEY WALKED AROUND FOR QUITE SOME TIME AND AT ONE POINT, LEON ASKED HIM SKEPTICALLY, "DID YOU FORGET WHERE YOUR HOTEL WAS?" THE WOMAN LOOKED NERVOUS AND MR. RED - HEAD ONLY LAUGHED IN REPLY. LEON HUFFED AND SHOVED HIS HANDS IN HIS POCKET. IT WAS TOO COLD TO BE WALKING AROUND EVERYWHERE. HE HAD A FEELING THAT HE WAS NOT ORIGINALLY FROM SIBERIA. IF HE WAS, THEN HE SHOULD HAVE LEFT THIS ICICLE LAND A LONG TIME AGO. HE DIDN'T LIKE BEING BUNDLED UP LIKE THIS. IT WAS TOO CONSTRICTING.

THEY CAME TO A STOP IN FRONT OF AN OLD WAREHOUSE THAT LOOKED RUNDOWN AND OUT OF SERVICE. LEON COCKED AN EYEBROW AND GLANCED HESITANTLY BETWEEN THE COUPLE. ALISTAIR, AS HE HAD LEARNED THE MAN'S NAME WAS, ASSURED HIM THAT THEY SHOULD GO INSIDE. HE SHRUGGED HIS SHOULDERS AND FOLLOWED AFTER. THE COUPLE SEEMED TO KEEP AN AWKWARD DISTANCE ABOUT THEM. THEY WALKED CLOSE ENOUGH TO SEEM FAMILIAR WITH ONE ANOTHER, BUT FAR ENOUGH APART TO NOT SEEM INTIMATE. LEON WONDERED ABOUT THAT, BUT FELT IT WASN'T HIS PLACE TO ASK.

WHEN THEY GOT INSIDE, LEON CAME TO A STOP IN FRONT OF ALISTAIR AND CROSSED HIS ARMS. HE DIDN'T HAVE A GOOD FEELING ABOUT BEING HERE. "ALL RIGHT SHOOT. WHY DID YOU BRING ME HERE AND WHAT IS IT THAT YOU SO DESPERATELY NEEDED TO TALK ABOUT?" HE GLOWERED DOWN AT THE OTHER MAN.

"You're an angel." HE REPLIED.

"WHAT?" LEON LOOKED TAKEN ABACK. "COME AGAIN?"

"You're an angel. Don't worry. I'm an angel too. This woman here, Iris, she's married to an angel." ALISTAIR MOTIONED TO THE WOMAN.

LEON PURSED HIS LIPS AND LEANED A LITTLE CLOSER. "IS THIS SOME SORT OF JOKE? JUST BECAUSE I HAVE AMNESIA DOESN'T MEAN I'M STUPID, YA' KNOW."

ALISTAIR RAISED HIS ARM, DRAWING BACK HIS SLEEVE, SMALL KNIVES BECAME TO PROTRUDE FROM HIS SKIN.

"WHAT THE HELL?" LEON JUMPED BACK. THIS WAS INSANE. HE MUST HAVE HIT HIS HEAD AGAIN OR SOMETHING.

"Believe me if you wish, but this is merely a piece of my powers as an angel...."

HE SWALLOWED NERVOUSLY. THIS WAS SO MESSED UP. HE WAS DREAMING. WHY ELSE WOULD SOMEONE BE EXUDING KNIVES? IRIS LOOKED BOTH UNCOMFORTABLE AND AFRAID. LEON TOOK A HESITANT STEP TOWARDS HER. HIS HEAD WAS HURTING AND HE KEPT A WATCHFUL EYE ON ALISTAIR'S MOVEMENTS. "WH - WHAT DO YOU WANT FROM ME?"

"I work for the angels of darkness...for whatever reasons they want you incapacitated....Hell, they would prefer you dead...but I have no desire to fulfill such a task...if I did you'd already be dead...No...I want to play."

"PLAY?" THIS GUY WAS CLEARLY A LUNATIC.

"I want you to attack me...attack me with all you've got...I will counter, but I will not kill....though if you turn away now...you will die...either by my hand or by the dark angels...the purpose? awakening these powers of yours...Let us be friends."

LET US BE FRIENDS? LEON STARED AT HIM INCREDULOUSLY. "FRIENDS? YOU WANT TO FIGHT ME WITH THOSE KNIVES THAT JUST CAME OUT OF YOUR ARM AND AT THE SAME TIME BE FRIENDS?" HE WAS SHOCKED MORE THAN ANYTHING. "I DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT. I DON'T HAVE POWERS. I'M NOT AN ANGEL."

ALISTAIR WAS APPARENTLY DONE WAITING, FOR HE CAME AFTER LEON IN THAT MOMENT. HE DODGED AND STARTED TO RUN. KNIVES WERE FLYING AND HIS HEART RATE QUICKENED AS HE RAN. WHAT THE HELL WAS WRONG WITH THIS GUY? HE ISN'T AN ANGEL. WHY WOULD ANYONE SAY OTHERWISE? WHY WOULD ANGELS DO SOMETHING LIKE THIS? THIS GUY IS A MONSTER. A SLIGHT BREEZE RUSHED PAST HIS BURNING FACE IN THE WAREHOUSE AND HE WATCHED AS A KNIFE SOARED PAST HIM. THE SOUND OF FABRIC RIPPING CAUGHT HIS ATTENTION AND HE LOOKED TO SEE A TEAR IN HIS JACKET. JUST GREAT.

LEON TURNED TO FACE ALISTAIR AND NOTICED THAT IRIS WAS STILL STICKING CLOSE TO HIM. WHAT WAS UP WITH THAT? HE COULDN'T HAVE THIS GUY CHASING HIM AND THROWING KNIVES AT HIM FOREVER. HE STOOD PANICKED, HIS PALE GOLDEN EYES FILLED WITH FEAR. WHAT WAS HAPPENING TO HIM? THERE WAS A BURNING AGAINST HIS CHEST AND HE REACHED FOR THE PENDANT. IT SEEMED TO BLAZE AGAINST HIS SKIN AND HE DROPPED IT IMMEDIATELY. WHAT? THERE WAS A FLASH AND THEN IT WENT STILL. HIS MIND WAS SUDDENLY TOO DISTRACTED BY THE STRANGE PENDANT TO NOTICE ANYTHING ELSE.

Adam listened to Henrik respond, and kept shaking his head as he went through it. He chuckled to himself amused by his words, but not necessarily in the good way.​

x

Adam spit and held more pressure to his arm as he spoke, "No need to be so selfish. There's more to fight for than just yourself." It was clearly a mock, he was repeating words Henrik had said previously. He didn't care whether or not it provoked him, he just found his sentence to be hypocritical.​

x​

He finally turned and walked away from Henrik speaking in a disinterested tone, "Fine. Goodbye. Nice to have known you for that short amount of time." ​

x​

Adam finally jammed his hands back into his pockets and turned to the group shouting, "And I was the one being ridiculed for being selfish." He then turned away and walked a little to sit on a nearby bench on his own. He rolled up his sleeve again to look at his self inflicted wound and he put his hand up to it.​

x​

Here.​

x​

Adam felt his hand release that heavy mist again, it wasn't something obvious that anyone could have seen. Unless you were looking at him and noticed the puff of air that looked like a cloud, it would have been something no one would have noticed.​

x​

Adam felt his arm feel numb afterwards.​

x​

I don't need you to make yourself bleed. If that is your response to the truth, I am terrified of you.​

 

[/url] Things definitely did not turn out for the best and Alistair could only sigh and shake his head. He knew he wasn't the best at breaking the news, and the amnesiac right before him was proof enough. This was going to be hard and he just hoped that he didn't actually have to kill the boy right away. He needed to push the boy even more, have him act and drive him to awaken his powers...it also meant some fun.

With a smirk the chase began. Knives produced from his own body were brought out and as fast as they were brought out, the same speed was used to toss them straight at the boy. His aim was lousy, but that was the mere point, he did not wish to harm the boy just yet. He wanted the boy to feel a sense of being cornered and right now it was working. His eyes narrowed with a smirk, but he fell some resistance from his other hand. That woman that was bound to him was so foolish in his eyes, thinking that her meagre efforts would even affect him at all.

One of his knives had managed to hit his opponent's jacket, but Alistair knew that the blow wasn't thick enough to cut through to the skin. To his surprise the boy stood where he was and faced him. The fear was there but the fact that he did not run showed his bravery. Before he could say or do anything more, the light of the boy's pendant caught his attention and he stared at it. The blades that had come out of Alistair's skin receded back into his body and Alistair merely smiled calmly. "You think I'm crazy...but I'm doing this for your own benefit...without your powers your merely fodder out there...you know nothing about yourself so how can you deny that you have special powers like me? That pendant is proof of your powers" Alistair said calmly.

LEON LIFTED HIS HEAD TO SEE THE STRANGE BLADES RECEDING INTO ALISTAIR'S ARMS. HE HAD A SMILE ON HIS FACE AS HE MET LEON'S GAZE. "You think I'm crazy...but I'm doing this for your own benefit...without your powers your merely fodder out there...you know nothing about yourself so how can you deny that you have special powers like me? That pendant is proof of your powers." HE CALMLY SAID.

HE LIFTED THE PENDANT ONCE MORE, IT NO LONGER BURNED HIS SKIN. THERE WAS A TINGLING AT THE BACK OF HIS MIND AND HE LICKED HIS LIPS. IT WAS SO FAMILIAR -- RIGHT THERE ON THE TIP OF HIS TONGUE. LEON FLICKED HIS SWEATY, GOLDEN - BLOND BANGS OUT OF HIS FACE. HE TAPPED ON THE PENDANT IN DEEP THOUGHT. WHAT WAS SO SPECIAL ABOUT THIS THING? IF ONLY HE COULD REMEMBER. HE RAISED HIS HEAD AND TOOK A HESITANT STEP TOWARDS ALISTAIR. EVEN WITH HIS SHAKY LEGS, HIS FOOTSTEPS WERE LIGHT AND SILENT. WHAT WAS HE MISSING? LEON CHEWED ON THE INSIDES OF HIS CHEEKS.

"I ... I WANT TO KNOW -- WHAT YOU KNOW. I WANT TO KNOW ABOUT MYSELF. I DON'T LIKE NOT BEING ABLE TO REMEMBER. IF YOU KNOW ANYTHING - ANYTHING AT ALL, I WOULD APPRECIATE IT." HE TOOK A DEEP BREATH, EXHALING A SMALL PUFF OF AIR. EVEN INSIDE THE WAREHOUSE, THE AIR WAS BITINGLY COLD. "BUT I WONT BE YOUR FRIEND. YOU ARE A LUNATIC IF YOU THINK I WOULD AGREE TO FRIENDSHIP AFTER YOU JUST TRIED ATTACKING ME." LEON STUFFED HIS HANDS IN HIS POCKETS. "LOOK AT MY JACKET. THE CLOTHES I'M WEARING ARE MY ONLY POSSESSIONS -- THAT I KNOW OF."
